@ Bernanke's Crossbow: Why is this section's neutrality being disputed? Jarble ( talk) 00:25, 25 January 2024 (UTC) reply

@ Jarble: Pretty much every paragraph includes extensive editorializing, verging on WP:SYNTH. The opening supposes a unified "political class", without citing any literature to suggest that this is an appropriate framework within which to analyze PR's political dynamics. And there is no clear picture presented, just a list of situations in which Puerto Rico does (or is implied to do) poorly (Is Puerto Rico trying to compete in those industries? Should it?). When I read the section, the author's subtext seems to me as "If I governed Puerto Rico, here's how I'd do it; and those politicians are just too lazy to do it too," which is inappropriate for an encyclopedia article. Hope this helps, Bernanke's Crossbow ( talk) 03:18, 25 January 2024 (UTC) reply
